Gearbox CEO Hints at a New Borderlands Game and More!
Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has fueled speculation about a new addition to the Borderlands franchise. In a recent interview, he hinted at multiple projects in development, teasing fans with the statement, "I don't think I've done a good enough job of hiding the fact that we're working on something... And I think people that love Borderlands are going to be very excited about what we're working on." He further suggested an announcement before the year's end, adding, "I have the biggest and best team...working on exactly what our fans want." While details remain scarce, the excitement is palpable.
The anticipation is heightened by the success of previous installments. Borderlands 3 (2019) and Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands (2022) both received critical acclaim, demonstrating the series' enduring appeal. This latest news arrives just in time for the upcoming Borderlands movie.
The Borderlands movie, premiering August 9th, 2024, boasts a star-studded cast including Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black, directed by Eli Roth. This cinematic adaptation could further expand the franchise's reach and lore.
The combination of a potential new game and the upcoming movie promises a significant year for Borderlands fans. Pitchford's cryptic comments have only intensified the speculation, leaving fans eagerly awaiting official confirmation.
